Using some features and services, or downloading
content, including free items, require a network
connection. This may cause the transfer of large
![](/img.php?id=3323723&img=bg4.png)
amounts of data, which may result in data costs. You
may also need to subscribe to some features.

Take care of your device
Handle your device, battery, charger and accessories
with care. The following suggestions help you keep your
device operational.
• Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all
types of liquids or moisture can contain minerals that
![](/img.php?id=3323723&img=bg5.png)
corrode electronic circuits. If your device gets wet,
remove the battery, and let the device dry.
• Do not use or store the device in dusty or dirty areas.
• Do not store the device in high temperatures. High
temperatures may damage the device or battery.
• Do not store the device in cold temperatures. When
the device warms to its normal temperature, moisture
can form inside the device and damage it.
• Do not open the device other than as instructed in
the user guide.
• Unauthorised modifications may damage the device
and violate regulations governing radio devices.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the device or the
battery. Rough handling can break it.
• Only use a soft, clean, dry cloth to clean the surface
of the device.
• Do not paint the device. Paint can prevent proper
operation.
• Keep the device away from magnets or magnetic
fields.
• To keep your important data safe, store it in at least
two separate places, such as your device, memory
card, or computer, or write down important info.
During extended operation, the device may feel warm. In
most cases, this is normal. To avoid getting too warm,
the device may automatically slow down, close apps,
switch off charging, and if necessary, switch itself off. If
the device is not working properly, take it to the nearest
authorised service facility.
Recycle
Always return your used electronic products, batteries,
and packaging materials to dedicated collection points.
This way you help prevent uncontrolled waste disposal
and promote the recycling of materials. Electrical and
electronic products contain a lot of valuable materials,
![](/img.php?id=3323723&img=bg6.png)
including metals (such as copper, aluminium, steel, and
magnesium) and precious metals (such as gold, silver,
and palladium). All materials of the device can be
recovered as materials and energy.
Crossed-out wheeled-bin symbol
The crossed-out wheeled-bin symbol on your product,
battery, literature, or packaging reminds you that all
electrical and electronic products and batteries must be
taken to separate collection at the end of their working
life. Do not dispose of these products as unsorted
municipal waste: take them for recycling. For info on
your nearest recycling point, check with your local waste
authority.
About Digital Rights Management
When using this device, obey all laws and respect local
customs, privacy and legitimate rights of others,
including copyrights. Copyright protection may prevent
you from copying, modifying, or transferring photos,
music, and other content.
See the online user guide for further information about
DRM.
Battery and charger info
To check if your phone has a removable or non-
removable battery, see the Get started guide.
Devices with a removable battery
Use your device only with an original rechargeable
battery. The battery can be charged and discharged
hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out. When
the talk and standby times are noticeably shorter than
normal, replace the battery.
Devices with a non-removable battery
Do not attempt to remove the battery, as you may
damage the device. To replace the battery, take the
device to the nearest authorised service facility.
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of
times, but it will eventually wear out. When the talk and
standby times are noticeably shorter than normal, to
replace the battery, take the device to the nearest
authorised service facility.
Charge your device with the provided charger. Charger
plug type may vary. Third-party chargers that comply
with the applicable USB requirements, and that can
connect to your device USB connector, may also be
compatible. Some of the accessories mentioned in this
user guide, such as charger, headset, or data cable, may
be sold separately.
Battery and charger safety
When your charger is not in use, unplug it. If left unused,
a fully charged battery will lose its charge over time.
Always keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F
and 77°F) for optimal performance. Extreme
temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of the
battery. A device with a hot or cold battery may not work
temporarily.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may
explode. Obey local regulations. Recycle when possible.
Do not dispose as household waste.
Do not dismantle, cut, crush, bend, puncture, or
otherwise damage the battery in any way. If a battery
leaks, do not let liquid touch skin or eyes. If this
happens, immediately flush the affected areas with
water, or seek medical help. Do not modify, attempt to
insert foreign objects into the battery, or immerse or
expose it to water or other liquids. Batteries may
explode if damaged.
Use the battery and charger for their intended purposes
only. Improper use, or use of unapproved or
incompatible batteries or chargers may present a risk of
fire, explosion, or other hazard, and may invalidate any
approval or warranty. If you believe the battery or
charger is damaged, take it to a service centre or your
phone dealer before continuing to use it. Never use a
damaged battery or charger. Only use the charger
indoors. Do not charge your device during a lightning
storm.
Additionally, the following applies if your device has a
removable battery:
• Always switch the device off and unplug the charger
before removing the battery. To unplug a charger or
an accessory, hold and pull the plug, not the cord.
• Accidental short-circuiting can happen when a
metallic object touches the metal strips on the
battery. This may damage the battery or the other
object.
Small children
Your device and its accessories are not toys. They may
contain small parts. Keep them out of the reach of small
children.
Medical devices
Operation of radio transmitting equipment, including
wireless phones, may interfere with inadequately
shielded medical devices’ function. Consult a physician
or the medical device’s manufacturer to determine if it
is adequately shielded from external radio energy.
Implanted medical devices
To avoid potential interference, manufacturers of
implanted medical devices recommend a minimum
separation of 15.3 centimetres (6 inches) between a
wireless device and the medical device. Persons who
have such devices should:
![](/img.php?id=3323723&img=bg9.png)
• Always keep the wireless device more than 15.3
centimetres (6 inches) from the medical device.
• Not carry the wireless device in a breast pocket.
• Hold the wireless device to the ear opposite the
medical device.
• Switch the wireless device off if there is any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place.
• Follow the manufacturer directions for the implanted
medical device.
If you have any questions about using your wireless
device with an implanted medical device, consult your
health care provider.
Hearing
Warning: When you use the headset, your ability to
hear outside sounds may be affected. Do not use the
headset where it can endanger your safety.
Some wireless devices may interfere with some hearing
aids.
Vehicles
Radio signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in vehicles. For
more info, check with the manufacturer of your vehicle
or its equipment.
Only qualified personnel should install the device in a
vehicle. Faulty installation may be dangerous and
invalidate your warranty. Check regularly that all wireless
device equipment in your vehicle is mounted and
operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable or
explosive materials in the same compartment as the
device, its parts, or accessories. Do not place your
device or accessories in the air bag deployment area.
Potentially explosive environments
Switch your device off in potentially explosive
environments, such as near petrol pumps. Sparks may
cause an explosion or fire resulting in injury or death.
Note restrictions in areas with fuel; chemical plants; or
where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a
potentially explosive environment may not be clearly
marked. These usually are areas where you are advised
to switch your engine off, below deck on boats, chemical
transfer or storage facilities, and where the air contains
chemicals or particles. Check with the manufacturers of
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane
or butane) if this device can be safely used in their
vicinity.
